Dogs and their owners like to do everything together: Snuggling up on the couch, sharing a meal, going for a walk, or simply hanging out and watching TV. If you happen to be a nature-lover *and* a dog-lover, there’s only one answer for you: You must take your dogs camping and continue to be awesome together in the great outdoors. The Instagram @campingwithdogs recognizes the special bond that pioneers and their pups have, and features dozens of photos of people braving the great wild with their canine companions. Warning: These pictures will make you want to grab your own pooch and head outdoors immediately.
Well that’s one way to get a dog up the mountain… #campingwithdogs @nospezinofun A photo posted by Camping With Dogs™ (@campingwithdogs) on Sep 23, 2015 at 6:18am PDT
